I don't dress my dog up, it's not natural. But for some dogs for example it is necessary in very cold wintertime to have coat. So that isn't bad. But giving your dog or cat something on their feet!!! That is bad!!! Because that is the way they loose bodyheat!

Recall throwing a blanket over my Red Setter (sincw deceased)
he was not impressed..tried nightly for weeks--in winter
geuss have to teach them as pups?
Not dressing them .. but
It was meant for his benefit...warmth
IF any SPCA told me not to..i would tell em to get F..k..d
enz
ended up leaving it in his bed..and he snuggled up to it'

I don't get why people do it but prosecuting them for it? Gimme a break. These people should spend more time worrying about what to do with strays, making vaccinations more available and population problems than a bunch of weirdos who put hats on their dogs.

My sister bought my dog two tops/coats. One said Bitch Magnet on it and the other said Bad To Da Bone.

None of them lasted that long because my dog ain't no sissy dog! And he tore them with his muscles. It was funny for about five minutes but then I felt sorry for him because his movements were restricted.

Well some dogs definitely do need winter jackets. You can see them shivering in the cold!

But when u start putting boots, hats, dresses etc on your dog u are just being disrespectful. Its not a doll or a fashion accessory. The way bimbos like Paris Hilton carry their tiny dog around & just plonk it down like a handbag just makes my blood boil. Sticking them in bags...how would they like to be stuck in a bag? Quite.

But prosecuted? well it could take up valuable time & resources that could be spent on more serious cases of abuse. Of which there are many.
